| Aanvullende informatie |
The Koinon of Bithynia — the provincial league of cities in the Roman province of Bithynia et Pontus — issued coins primarily in connection with the imperial cult, and Hadrian's relationship with the region was unusually direct. He visited the province during his extensive eastern tours, and the city of Nicomedia, the provincial capital, was devastated by earthquake during his reign; imperial reconstruction funds flowed into the region as a result. Koinon bronzes of this period functioned as prestige issues tied to festival and cult activity rather than routine commerce.
